COMMENTS

Figurate numbers based on 8-dimensional regular simplex. - Jonathan Vos Post, Nov 28 2004
Just as A005712 and A000574 are described as the coefficients of x^4 and x^5 in the expansion of (1+x+x^2)^n, so should this sequence be described as the coefficients of x^3 therein. - R. K. Guy, Oct 19 2007
Product of 8 consecutive numbers divided by 8!. - Artur Jasinski, Dec 02 2007
In this sequence there are no primes. - Artur Jasinski, Dec 02 2007
a(n) = number of (n-8)-digit numbers with nondescending digits. E.g., a(9) = 9 = {1,2,3,..,9}, a(10) = 45 = {11-19, 22-29, 33-39, ..., 99} [0 is counted as a zero-digit number rather than a 1-digit number]. - Toby Gottfried, Feb 14 2012
a(n) =fallfac(n, 8)/8! = binomial(n, 8) is also the number of independent components of an antisymmetric tensor of rank 8 and dimension n >= 8 (for n = 1..7 this becomes 0). Here fallfac is the falling factorial. - Wolfdieter Lang, Dec 10 2015
Number of compositions (ordered partitions) of n+1 into exactly 9 parts. - Juergen Will, Jan 02 2016
Number of weak compositions (ordered weak partitions) of n-8 into exactly 9 parts. - Juergen Will, Jan 02 2016
Partial sums of A000580. - Art Baker, Mar 26 2019

G.f.: x^8/(1-x)^9.
a(n) = A110555(n+1,8). - Reinhard Zumkeller, Jul 27 2005
a(n) = n(n-1)(n-2)(n-3)(n-4)(n-5)(n-6)(n-7)/8!. - Artur Jasinski, Dec 02 2007
Sum_{k>=8} 1/a(k) = 8/7. - Tom Edgar, Sep 10 2015Sum_{n>=8} (-1)^n/a(n) = A001787(8)*log(2) - A242091(8)/7! = 1024*log(2) - 74432/105 = 0.9065224171... - Amiram Eldar, Dec 10 2020
